It’s done: Paris have their new goalkeeper. Lucas Chevalier, 22, successfully completed his medical on Friday and signed a five-year deal with PSG, reports RMC Sport.
The price tag is hefty — €55 million including bonuses, a record fee for a goalkeeper trained in Ligue 1. Lille pockets €40 million guaranteed plus bonuses, bidding farewell to one of their brightest talents after a standout season.
The move shakes up the hierarchy: Gianluigi Donnarumma, despite winning the Champions League and earning a Yashin Trophy nomination, hasn’t extended his deal and is no longer PSG’s untouchable No.1.
Chevalier’s mission is clear — he’s here to be the starter. Donnarumma must now decide: stay and fight for his spot, or move on to a new challenge. Manchester United and Galatasaray are already circling.
